Not boasting of things without our measure, that is, of other men’s labours; but having hope, when your faith is increased, that we shall be enlarged by you according to our rule abundantly,

not glorying beyond our measure, that is, in other men’s labors; but having hope that, as your faith groweth, we shall be magnified in you according to our province unto further abundance,

Our boasting, therefore, is not unlimited, nor does it extend to the labors of others; but our hope is that, as your faith grows, our influence among you may be very greatly increased — though still confined to our sphere —

indem wir uns nicht ins Maßlose rühmen in fremden Arbeiten, aber Hoffnung haben, wenn euer Glaube wächst, unter euch vergrößert zu werden nach unserem Wirkungskreise,

No gloriándonos fuera de nuestra medida en trabajos ajenos; mas teniendo esperanza del crecimiento de vuestra fe, que seremos muy engrandecidos entre vosotros, conforme á nuestra regla.

Não nos orgulhamos além da medida no trabalho de outros, mas temos esperança de que, quando vossa fé crescer, seremos engrandecidos abundantemente entre vós conforme nossa extensão;

Nós não nos gloriamos demasiadamente nos trabalhos alheios; pelo contrário, esperamos que, enquanto a vossa fé cresce, nossa área de trabalho se expanda, dentro dos nossos limites de atuação.
